'THE Parker next Here are a few interesting facts about HOLT RENFREW LIMITED This firm was founded one hundred and five years ago in Quebec City. At the beginning, and all through the years since, HOLT RENFREW have been dealers in Furs. Then came the establishment of the Branch in Montreal then in Toronto and, last but not least, in Winnipeg. The latter Branch although the youngest in terms of time thirty odd years became the oldest in appearance compared with our recently rebuilt and reconstructed Branches. Fully realizing this condition during the past months we decided to rejuvenate the fine old building at Portage and Carlton.

The blue prints were perfected, but unavoidable conditions delayed the start of the reconstruction according to schedule. Now the work is under way for the modernization of HOLT RENFREW. in Winnipeg! Backed by a tradition of 105 years in business -passing from generation to generation, both in control and service is it any wonder that this day HOLT RENFREW are conceded to be the Dominion's Leading Fashion Shops!
